Default I'm really going to be disappointed...

If Donald Trump, John Herring's man, doesn't win the GOP nomination.

From CNN:

(CNN)Donald Trump is issuing a dire warning to his supporters: You're
getting ripped off.

Sigh...and Trump would be the easiest candidate for Hillary to beat,
though I am sure she'd slaughter Ted Cruz, too. Wait, there's John
Kasich, who is going nowhere, and maybe waiting in the wings, Paul Ryan.



The GOP really doesn't want Trump, any more than the DNC wants Bernie.
Both will be pushed out by politics, no matter what they win in the
primaries. The open question is where do their followers go, if they
show up at all. It is hard to imagine these people being able to vote
for Hillary or Cruz.



Apparently a majority of those GOPers voting in that party's primaries
want Trump. I certainly can understand and appreciate why the GOP
leaders don't want the Trumpster or the Cruzer, but I really don't see
where they have a possibility of a general election winner in their
ranks or among "the 17" who dropped out of the race.


It is not really the majority. He is still only getting about 30-40%
of the vote.

I am sure a significant percentage of Bernie's student supporters in the
primaries/caucuses will sit on their hands in the general election, as
students do in every election.


As long as they do, we will keep stealing their future.
Unfortunately Bernie is no better for them. He would just pile onto
the debt that they carry. Taking it off the student debt and putting
it on the national debt just spreads it to kids who didn't go to
college and have less ability to pay for it.

If Trump loses the nomination, I am sure he will do something to further
screw up the GOP's chances. He's really *the* flaming asshole of
politicians, and he will make a Nazi-like retreat, burning the grain and
villages as he leaves. The guy is really disgusting.


I agree on Trump. He will either get the nomination or he will burn
the place down. It is strange that the biggest antagonists for both
parties are not really party members. Trumps democratic credentials
are as strong as his republican ones and Bernie has called himself
independent for as long as anyone can remember.
